Lyrics
[Intro]
[Reggae Beat]
[Acoustic Guitar]
[Verse 1]
[G3 - G3 - G3 - G3]
June 6th, let’s celebrate, the green roofs up high,
[D3 - D3 - D3 - D3]
Nature’s touch on buildings, reaching for the sky.
[C3 - C3 - C3 - C3]
From ancient Babylon, to modern times today,
[G3 - G3 - G3 - G3]
Green roofs are here to stay, in a sustainable way. [Yeah]
[Chorus]
[Reverb]
[G4 - B4 - D5 - G5]
Happy Birthday to You, green roofs all around,
[Delay]
[D4 - F#4 - A4 - D5]
Cooling our cities, making a beautiful sound,
[C4 - E4 - G4 - C5]
With plants and flowers, nature’s best display,
[G4 - B4 - D5 - G5]
On this World Green Roof Day, hip-hip-hooray! [Ohh]
[Verse 2]
[Acoustic Guitar]
[Reggae Beat]
[G3 - G3 - G3 - G3]
Vikings used them too, in their own special way,
[D3 - D3 - D3 - D3]
Insulating homes, come winter or summer’s day.
[C3 - C3 - C3 - C3]
Modern green roofs now, save energy and cost,
[G3 - G3 - G3 - G3]
A shield against the storm, and the summer’s hot exhaust. [Hmm]
[Chorus]
[Reverb]
[G4 - B4 - D5 - G5]
Happy Birthday to You, green roofs all around,
[Delay]
[D4 - F#4 - A4 - D5]
Cooling our cities, making a beautiful sound,
[C4 - E4 - G4 - C5]
With plants and flowers, nature’s best display,
[G4 - B4 - D5 - G5]
On this World Green Roof Day, hip-hip-hooray! [Yeah]
[Bridge]
[Reggae Beat]
[G3 - G3 - G3 - G3]
Green roofs bring us health, filtering the air,
[D3 - D3 - D3 - D3]
Cutting down pollution, showing that we care.
[C3 - C3 - C3 - C3]
Absorbing rainwater, reducing urban floods,
[G3 - G3 - G3 - G3]
Building a future, with sustainable buds. [Ohh]
[Chorus]
[Reverb]
[G4 - B4 - D5 - G5]
Happy Birthday to You, green roofs all around,
[Delay]
[D4 - F#4 - A4 - D5]
Cooling our cities, making a beautiful sound,
[C4 - E4 - G4 - C5]
With plants and flowers, nature’s best display,
[G4 - B4 - D5 - G5]
On this World Green Roof Day, hip-hip-hooray! [Yeah]
[Outro]
[Acoustic Guitar]
[G3 - G3 - G3 - G3]
Celebrate the green roofs, reaching for the sky,
[D3 - D3 - D3 - D3]
With every leaf and petal, bringing life up high,
[C3 - C3 - C3 - C3]
Happy Birthday to You, green roofs we say,
[G3 - G3 - G3 - G3]
On this special World Green Roof Day. [Soft Fade Out]
[End]
